Drenched.
So immensely saturated by the things that hang from me.
Losing strength.
So much work, so little time.
“A break?”
‘………..no.’
I must build the wall before the levee breaks.
But, this weight!
Clinging like a parasite to the host,
slowly draining the life………from….me.
Oh God, slow me down!
Stop this downpour long enough for me to catch that much needed break…..
Oh, look. The water is cresting.
Back to work.
